Triggerise Annual Report 2016

Another year has passed, the second full year in Triggerise’s existence. It’s been awesome: we have more than doubled in size, successfully entering into a number of interesting partnerships that provided both innovation opportunities and access to funding. We started growing up as an organization – we now have proper business processes and policies, a sophisticated ERP, and a scalable structure. We also made our share of mistakes and learned a thing or two. Most importantly, we better articulated the sort or organization we want to be, which sharpens both our business model and the type of partnerships we want to enter into.

In our markets, we have refined and redefined our products and offering. We set up a data science unit, which has become central to everything that we do. We set up an in-house insights unit. We have built a real-time impact investment platform, which we look forward to refining and scaling up this year.

Most of all, we are stoked about the exhilarating opportunities unlocked by our work.

What has not changed since the last report is our commitment to rational, honest, data-driven evaluation of our work and our determination to avoid the pitfalls of emotional heuristics that plague our industry. Like the last one, this report has no pictures. Indeed the arguments for this approach were stronger than ever in 2016 – a year that seemed at times irrational and purely emotion-driven.
